A DARING RAID.
About One Hundred and Fifty Horses
Carried off Near Taffy RIDGE.

CARRIED Oft Near any HIdRe.
Fr. BENTON, June 141Special to
the Tribune The following letter re-
ceived by T. G. Power & Bro. on Satur-
day evening, gives the full account OF
one of the boldest, of the many bold
horse stealing raids that have occur
red in northern Montana for years
past.
Coal BANKS, June Ill am here in
search of our bands of horses, mostly
mares and colts and three and four year
geldings, and with them one Clydesdale
and trotting stallion. They have usually
been kept with the bands, a stallion with
each. The two bands numbered about $50
horses and were branded F on the right
shoulder One band was kept near The
mountains and the other near the horse
ranch
They were as seen by Mr.. Thomas Shea,
on the morning of the 9th inst, being rap
idly driven rway by parties supposed to
be Blood Indians. He saw the parties
stop to fix their saddles but could not tell
whether they were Indians or not. He
afterwards saw them and found broken
strap with scolloped edges on their trail.
At that time the first band must have been
driven eleven or twelve miles to have
reached the point where he saw,them, While
the other and larger band had only been
driven four miles, not having had so far
to travel.
Mr.. Shea Immediately hurried to our
horse ranch at Tafy Ridge, but all the
men were out. As soon as possible he
found them and gave the alarm. A pur-
suing party was hastily organized and
started in pursuit. ANDREW FERGUS.
Should the Fergus Bros. whose
ranch is situated in the Judith Basin,
and who are among our most prosper
Gus and highly respected stockmen,
fail to recover their animals the loss
will be heavy one to them.

a Safe Bet for Him.

One Of the Telifere boys, living near
Efinghan, recently made bet that he
could kill, clean, cook and eat spring
chicken in fifteen minutes. Preparatory
to the contest, he secured the chicken and
provided himself with pot Of boiling
water, a bucket Of cold water, a hot skillet
and hot fatiron. When time was called
he jerked the chickens head of, doused
it in a pot of boiling water, clipped the
feathers off, cleaned It and then laid the
fry flat in the pan, with flat iron on top, to-
cook the upper side. At the close Of
eleven and half minutes he had the
bones beautifully polished, Atchsoa

That New Stage Line.

The Bozeman Chronicle says: "Some
Great Falls sboomer' is advertising that
the Great Falls stagecompany will carry
passengers from Minot to Great Falls,
leaving twice week. When one con-
sidsrs the important fact that Minot is six
hundred miles from Great Falls, and that
for distance of four hundred miles there
is not a habitation of any kind, the state
ment made by this boomer is a little the
widest we have ever met with in this bow
and arrow country.
The advertisement referred to appeared
first in Dakota and so should be credited
to some Minot 1sboemer" The end of the
track will soon be near enough for stage
line between it and Great Falls.-[ED.
